If you stuck the Fimo clay into a toaster oven the temperature indicator of the toaster oven probably isn't accurate, but a lot offSounds you used the appropriate time, but not the appropriate temperatureThe temp in a toaster oven may also not be very homogenousYou can use a toaster oven, but you need to make sure you figure out the actual heat where you put your sculpture using an oven thermometerI guess like with baking you can use a piece of aluminum foil so it get less direct heat from heating elements If you use a normal oven which you also use for food you should either put it into a roast bag or enclose it in aluminum foil OR clean your oven before you use the oven for food againSo essentially the aluminum foil saves you cleaning timeI think the first answer assumes you use oil-based clay instead of FimoIf you used a polymer clay like Fimo, yes it should be OK to bake in the ovenIf you used something else, it depends what that something else was.
